Mott Haven Games.
The annual track games for the Inter-
collegiate Championship of the United
States will be held at Mott Haven, Fri-
day and Saturday, May 26 and 27.
Judged from the recent performances
of the athletes representing the various
colleges, Pennsylvania should win the
meet, with Yale a probable second and
Harvard third. Kraenzlein and Mc-
Cracken of Pennsylvania, the former a
hurdler and broad jumper and the latter
a weight man, are alone counted on to
win five first places. Yale should score
heavily in the flat races, while Harvard
will probably have to depend on second,
third and fourth places in the various
events for her points, with the probable
exception of the quarter-mile run.

A RECORD
which has no equal. Col. Thos. Martin, of Bluffton, S. C., shooting a Parker Gun at Elkwood
Park, in eight days’ shooting from April 8th (including the Grand American Handicap), killed
501 live birds out of 567 shot at, and also made a run of 144 straight.
On April 28th he won the Maryland Handi-
cap, killing 25 straight.
That the “ Old Reliable’’ is extremely pop-
ular is strongly attested by the fact that of the
263 contestants in the Grand American Handi-
cap of 1899, 77 were using “‘ Parker’s.”’
Facts such as these prove the “ Parker’? to
be the most popular shotgun in America.
There are more Parker Guns in the hands of Amateurs than any other make of gun in the world.
